The aerobic maternal exercise increases PDK4 gene expression in slow and fast twitch muscles of rat male offspring.
Recent studies indicate that environment can modify skeletal muscle gene expression and transcriptional factors in offspring genes. Therefore, exercising can lead to changes in the gene expression of the future generations. One of the important metabolic factors is PDK4, which is known as the main factor in Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex (PDC). This study examined the effects of maternal exerci...
متن کاملChronic hypobaric hypoxia increases isolated rat fast-twitch and slow-twitch limb muscle force and fatigue.
Chronic hypoxia alters respiratory muscle force and fatigue, effects that could be attributed to hypoxia and/or increased activation due to hyperventilation. We hypothesized that chronic hypoxia is associated with phenotypic change in non-respiratory muscles and therefore we tested the hypothesis that chronic hypobaric hypoxia increases limb muscle force and fatigue. Adult male Wistar rats were...
متن کاملDecay of Ca2+ and force transients in fast- and slow-twitch skeletal muscles from the rat, mouse and Etruscan shrew.
Isometric single-twitch force and intracellular Ca2+ transients were recorded simultaneously, using fura-2, from slow- and fast-twitch muscle fibres of the rat, mouse and Etruscan shrew Suncus etruscus. In the slow-twitch rat soleus, force half-relaxation time was three times longer than the 50% decay time of the fura-2 signal. In contrast, in the fast-twitch extensor digitorum longus muscles o...
متن کاملRedox modulation of maximum force production of fast-and slow-twitch skeletal muscles of rats and mice.
We used intact fast-twitch extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and slow-twitch soleus muscles from rats and mice to test the hypothesis that exogenous application of an oxidant would increase maximum isometric force production (P(o)) of slow-twitch muscles to a greater extent than fast-twitch skeletal muscles. Exposure to an oxidant, hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2); 100 microM to 5 mM, 30 min), affecte...
متن کاملThe Effect of Intensive Endurance Activity on Myocyte Enhancer Factor 2C Gene Expression of Slow and Fast Twitch Muscles in Male Wistar Rats: An Experimental Study
Background and Objectives: Myocyte enhancer factor 2c activates the genes of the slow-twitch muscle, the muscle which plays role in endurance activity. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a program of intensive endurance activity on MEF2c gene expression in fast and slow twitch skeletal muscles in wistar rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 14 mal...
